It’s been a long time since the last NAB, and we at VITEC are glad to be here and see such a fantastic turnout. We’ve added many things to our EZ TV IPTV platform, and, it really has transformed the entire broadcast industry. Bryan Reksten, VP of Marketing at VITEC speaks with Lane Cooper about what is happening in video technology at this year’s NAB 2022.
Broadcast sector’s not the only area in which we’re seeing innovative applications of IPTV to engage with other audiences, from entertainment and stadiums where you’re looking at the game and what the action going on in the game. Essentially, we’re providing an IPTV platform that’s very flexible and scalable. It can be used in many, many different environments.
In enterprise environments, corporate usage to communicate with your employees, training, have all hands broadcast, they can use the set top boxes to view the content, or employees can view it from their desktop.

Also, at this year’s NAB 2022, VITEC received a technical Emmy award for our IPTV platform for newsrooms and production facilities. “This Emmy is a huge honor and a confirmation from the best minds in the broadcast industry that VITEC has a major impact in the television, news and media domains.
Special congratulations go to our EZ TV Platform team and the contribution they have had at VITEC, as well as each and every department in our company, for establishing us as the world’s top solution provider for IPTV Distribution for News and Media facilities,” says Eli Garten.
For IP video distribution in news and media facilities, the Award Committee looked at examples of some of VITEC’s key users of our solution. They learned how our middleware technology started as a basic single channel browser player for desktops, which we incepted back in 2006, and was quickly upgraded to a multi-channel browser player for Windows and Mac with set-top boxes and central management in 2007. The EZ TV platform has continued to evolve to a complete solution of user and content management, to any screen (Desktop, TV, Mobile, Video Wall), for local and remote users.
In the context of the IPTV Distribution Solution, VITEC’s EZ TV Platform has always been the gold standard, the ultimate solution and the most deployed and used technology by news and media companies. I am confident we will be able to maintain our leadership position for years to come.
